Sewing Class for Kids -- Spring Break Fun
Spring Break is fast approaching, and if you’re looking for a creative, confidence building activity for your kids or grandkids, this is the perfect opportunity. Sign them up for one or both days of our Beginning Sewing Class designed especially for young makers.
By the end of class, students will feel more comfortable sewing straight lines, understanding seam sizes, and safely using an iron.

- Skill Level: Beginner
- Instructor: Cathy Alfrey
(If you have questions if your child is ready for this type of class, please call the shop and allow us to talk through this opportunity. We keep these classes smaller in size to allow ample time between child and instructor.)
